unify aikidoka, and not divide. It is to continue the walk on the path of
budo, one that was shown by the founder of aikido – Morihei Ueshiba.
True budo that comes from the unification of technique, body, and heart. The
budo, which will manifest itself. One that does not depend upon the
technique, but rather relies upon the heart of the practitioner.</font><p style="margin:10; ">
<font face="Arial" size="2">To walk this path, modern aikidoka needs to get
back to the very roots of Aikido. The place, where these roots and
traditions are cultivated and kept alive is its place of origin – Japan's <a href="http://www.aikikai.or.jp/">
